Chicken Parmesan Dip

December 10, 2019 Amanda Plott

I love Italian food. I mean… who doesn’t? One of my favorite Italian dishes is chicken parmesan. But, with things being so chaotic around the house right now, I thought it would be best if I could find a way to enjoy chicken parmesan as quickly and easily as possible. Chicken Parmesan Dip it is!

This Chicken Parmesan Dip has all the pieces and parts of a chicken parmesan, but is put together in the form of a perfectly dipable dish! Cooked chicken, marinara, ricotta, mozzarella… and of course, parmesan! After all, you can’t have chicken parmesan without the parmesan…

All you busy parents out there… this one's for you! And your kids too, of course! I don’t know about you but as an animal lover, my little one loves her cartoons and PAW Patrol has always been at the top of her list of favorites. So, when I saw these PAW Patrol inspired snack cheeses at my local HEB I knew that I had to get them and do something fun with them for snack time!

When I was little, two of my favorite snacks were cheese sticks and pizza bites. So, I thought to myself… why not both? And you know what? Let’s make them crazy easy and simple too. With literally just a handful of ingredients and a quick bake to perfection. The best part? They have the playful look of a rawhide dog bone! PAW Patrol, here we come.

Melon Caprese Skewers

July 30, 2019 Amanda Plott

It’s hot.

While I’m still absolutely refusing to turn my oven on right now, I still need to find creative things to eat without heating up the entire house. These Melon Caprese Skewers are a light and fun twist on a cypress.

Caprese salad is usually made with tomatoes, fresh mozzarella, and maybe some balsamic. Today though, I’m putting the salad on a skewer and using cantaloup instead of tomato. I know, sounds a little wacky, right? Well, I promise you that it’s a very very good combination…

Tomocado Salad

If you’re looking for a light and quick salad to make this summer, then look no further! This ‘tomocado salad’ is as quick and easy to make as they come. What’s tomocado? Tomatoes. Mozzarella. And Avocado. Get it? To-Mo-Cado!

What makes this Tomocado Salad even better is that it’s naturally low carb and gluten free. Plus, I mean… who doesn’t want to gorge on cheese and avocado? I should note too that I’m using the term ‘salad’ here pretty loosely since there isn’t actually any lettuce involved. It’s more of a salad in the sense of that it’s a combination of cold fruits/veggies along with some cheese and herbs…

With just a handful of ingredients and a few minutes of hands on time, you’ll have a beautiful and patriotic caprese salad for all to enjoy.

Caprese salads have been some of my favorites for many many years now. They’re refreshing and notoriously simple. Which means they’re easy to make! Besides, who doesn’t love tomatoes, fresh mozzarella and basil? No one that I know of!…

Baked Pepperoni Pizza Chicken

If you’re looking for a quick and easy weeknight meal, then look no further! This Baked Pepperoni Pizza Chicken can be prepared ahead of time up until the point of baking, and then tossed in the over just ahead of dinner time. No fuss, no muss. Just easy cheesy chicken!

Keeping things simple and lower in carbs, doesn’t mean that you can’t enjoy it. This chicken, while made with just 4 simple ingredients, is full of pizza flavor and is deeeelicious, if I do say so myself. I love pizza. And I love baked chicken. Put the two together? Pizza chicken!…
